Some great animated shorts here as well as several well done short live action films. I really love Violent Combat Robots. It’s no different then 99.9% of kids action cartoons. I’m not sure what the remaining .1% is actually…

An inspired short from Canada. You Tube gives us a chance to see so much. When you consider that even with cable TV, you get material that is for the most part, complient with a bigger agenda (improve ratings against such-and-such network) or it has to be family oriented, or it’s material an agent can [...]

A series of clips from Disney films pulled together by someone for their animation class. It collects their favorite clips from 1920 - 1960. It includes a snip from Elmar Elephant (1936) which I have had a hard time finding anywhere. It’s been on Youtube for 2 years, but I just found it. Man…Some [...]

Once upon a time…well, a few years back anyway, I created a superhero duo called, Nausea Guy and Wicked Boy. They were your typical down-and-out superheroes.
